Transition metal oxides are preferred materials for catalytic applications due to their half-filled d orbitals that make them exist in different oxidation states. However, they show lower catalytic activity toward ORRs.
Metal oxides have very different electrical properties from metals, semiconductors and insulators, and are used in many different areas such as sensors, superconductors, magnets and lighting.

Transition metals and their oxides are used in process of industries as catalysts.
Explanation:
- Most of the transition metal and their oxides have variable valency and oxidation states. Due to this reason they can accept electrons when required to decrease their oxidation State.
- Furthermore they can donate this electrons when it is required for the reaction.
- In this context, transition metals and their oxides can widely used as a catalyst in chemical Industries to speed up the rate of the reaction without getting used up.
- Some of the transition metal also act as Noble metal and used in the manufacture of jewelleries like gold and silver.
